FOX is based on hunting behavior of Red Fox.
This is a new metaheuristic algorithm that can be applied to solve different problem.
FOX implementation includes four matlab files:
Get_Functions_details.m
initialization.m
FOX.m
main.m
Get_Functions_details.m: includes the standard benchmark functions
initialization.m: it is used to initialize the population of red fox
FOX: includes both exploration and exploitation equation.
In FOX objective functions are called which is inside Get_Functions_details.m
main.m file is used to run the FOX algorithm
How it works:
You only need to Run the main.m using matlab software
then you can see the results
by running the main file FOX runs 30 time ( each time includes 500 iterations)
Results prints 30 best_Score and then shows the average of them
all files must be in the same directory.
